If someone has Prime, they still have the storage, from what I’m seeing.

I suspect what Kindle is trying do do, besides realizing that offering “free” cloud storage of non-Amazon-purchased content was costing them a lot of money, is trying to tighten the noose to get people more strongly entrenched in an Amazon-only one-click architecture. I even hosted other author’s free short stories…guess I better go check that feature. And what happens to the “Send to Kindle” program? I have offered my readers free short stories from my blog as “send to Kindle” for a few years now.

I didn’t use it other than to read samples, HOWEVER, I have used the “mail this mobi to your kindle.” I don’t know if I will be able to mail a mobi to my kindle for free anymore. In order to upload new files you will need to pick one of the free 3-month trials.

You can continue to download and view your content. Access to your existing files has not changed.

Your 5 GB plan is no longer available and has been replaced with a free 3-month trial of one of the Unlimited plans. Or, if you have more than photos that you need to keep safe, the Unlimited Everything plan is perfect for all your photos, video, files, and documents, for $59.99/year.

You can now save all your photos in one place with the Unlimited Photos plan for $11.99/year, plus 5 GB for videos and files. Thanks for being an Amazon Cloud Drive customer! Amazon Cloud Drive is introducing new unlimited storage plans. I posted this type of question to mobileread this morning because I got the following email: Given that the Kindle help pages still say that Kindle owners can store personal documents on Amazon Cloud Drive, I think there’s a 50-50 chance that this really was a mistake, technical or otherwise. Right now I am hoping that they will respond with the explanation that this was a mistake, and that they will fix it.Īnd while they’re at it, I would hope that Amazon will extend the free 5GB to Kindle app users as well (it would be silly to leave them out in the cold).

But if you own another type of Amazon hardware, you get diddly.Īm I the only one who is having trouble fathoming that decision?Īmazon has nullified two of the features that made the Kindle better than any other ebook platform, while at the same time making the platform less useful to Amazon’s customers. I don’t understand why they did that, so I have queried Amazon on the matter. If you own one type of Amazon hardware, you get 5GB of storage. Take a moment and wrap your mind around that, people. To be clear, I do own a Kindle, but I’m not getting 5GB of free storage to go with it. I still have 10 GB of storage on Amazon’s servers.Īmazon might not be giving any free storage to Kindle owners, but I’m getting 5GB as a Prime member, and I’m getting another 5GB because I also own a Fire tablet: So Amazon took storage away from Kindle users? That sucks, but here is the kicker: I just set up a new account at Amazon and registered a Kindle to it. Why is that? Because Amazon has killed the free 5GB option for all Cloud Drive users, and people are now forced to choose a yearly Cloud Drive plan in order to still be able to use the Send-to-Kindle feature.Įdit: I can now confirm the report.

I just found out this morning that sending files from my PC to my Kindle Paperwhite doesn’t work anymore. Since Amazon also offers an email conversion service for Kindle owners, this presents a special problem. As my tipster put it: It covers an issue which has been fixed by Amazon. (This too was not temporarily nonfunctional.) And as always, the ebooks you buy from Amazon will always be hosted by Amazon.

Also, Kindle owners now have a separate place to store the personal documents they SendToKindle which Amazon says “will no longer count against your Cloud Drive storage limits”. Update: Amazon reports that the SendToKindle conversion service did break, but they fixed it. ( Thanks, Tiberiu!) While no one would expect to get a freebie forever, the changeover is having an unexpected impact on Kindle owners, who have lost access to the cloud storage they have been enjoying since late 2011. When Amazon launched their new unlimited storage tier yesterday they gave their customers more storage than you can shake a stick at, but they also quietly killed the free storage which they used to offer their customers.Ī couple readers have told me, and I have confirmed, that Amazon is no longer offering the free 5GB storage tier. Kindle owners are angry today, and with good reason.
